It makes one look like a pseudo intellectual. Just my opinion. Maybe the family is just putting the puppy in the garage and using it like a crate and the garage is heated and the pup is also let inside and gets lots of interaction (really hoping this is the case). I just haven't heard all the details so I'll refrain myself from saying any negative things, which I think is the appropriate thing to do. |
To me, whether the garage is insulated is pointless. This pup is less than 12 weeks old, which makes it an infant. Infants need way more care, even a 12 week old needs lots of care. Even if the garage was attached to the house, how often do people really truly visit the garage? The ideal place to put a pup, any pup, is in an area where they are exposed to the people of the house, the house noises, smells, and all things that would be going on in everyday life. How else do you expect them to get use to their new home? Even if the garage was top of the line, with all the amenities, this pup is still out of sight, out of mind. It's kinda like when some breeders say that they have a "yorkie house" that is separate from their home, yet claim they are raised in their loving home. How can you really share the love, when they're not even easily accessible?
